While trying to photograph a shrike in the distance, I noticed that one of the October Glory Maples (Acer rubrum) appeared as bokeh in the background. An aspen in the foreground lost its leaves with the recent high winds. I shot more water drops than I did of the poor little wet shrike.
And it is raining again, a true Pacific Northwest month. Lovely!
Thank you, Flickr, for high resolution!
At the Whitney Portal, there is a series of beautiful waterfalls on Lone Pine Creek, cascading down the rocks. Aspen trees grow on the sides, making a line of gold this time of year.

LIVE EACH SEASON
“Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth.”
― Henry David Thoreau, Walden
I love it when seasons collide.

Even a dull gray day can yeild ribbons of color in Autumn. Taken on one of my favorite old country roads.
Colorado, USA
EXPLORE: Oct 25, 2010
THANKS!
the best is yet to be. :)
I get so excited in the Autumn. every since I was a small child I have found myself just waiting for autumn every year. At my ripe old age nothing has changed. :) I can't take enough photos, I can't be out in it enough, and I wonder why it goes SO FAST. (I know the answer but …)
Grand Mesa, Colorado

This doe seemed to be reaching out to catch those last rays of the sun on her face. She stood in an aspen forest here in Colorado.

Every autumn a melancholy sweeps over me as it seems autumn is a reminder to us of the shortness of life. (also how beautiful life can be at it's end stages) Each beautiful leaf has but one season before it takes it's final beautiful swirl down to the ground. Maybe, too, it has something to do with both of my parents being laid to rest in the month of October and some how knowing one day I will be too. :)
Taken at the Last Dollar Road in Colorado, a wonderful scenic drive from Telluride to Ridgway in the mountains, which we did
the other way round.

Wytheville's Smallest Church, Wytheville, Virginia. This small roadside church sits on a service road alongside I-81/77. The 12X6 foot chapel was built by volunteers. The chapel, which seats 6, is one of the smallest churches in America. Title quote from the poem "i am a little church" by e.e. cummings.
Aspen trees grow right through the HOOD, FENDER, CAB AND BOX of this classic 1952 Ford Pick-up
FORD GROVE - Public Art Piece
IRONWOOD MALL, RICHMOND
Artist: Douglas Taylor.
City: Richmond, British Columbia
Canada
This red truck once worked the blueberry fields that once covered the site of the shopping centre. As the trembling Aspen grow larger the ‘52 Ford will rise higher. Nature engages technology in this piece.
Artist Statement
Ford Grove addresses the historic erosion of farmland over the past decades: ubiquitous fields of blueberries have been replaced with strip malls, condo developments and warehousing . . . an ongoing eradication of some of the world’s richest farmland. This Ford pickup was at one time working in those blueberry fields!
This metaphor of the machine being invaded by nature also offers speculations on the future of unfettered development. Indeed, it is only a matter of years before the trees have their way with this vehicle.

If I were to envy any persons on this planet, it would be mountain hermits. You often hear old platitudes such as, 'Speak out. Be heard.' On the contrary, a breath of fresh air would be something like: 'Silence, think for at least 15 minutes, and then maybe speak out.” ― Criss Jami, Killosophy
The Aspen trees are a lime green when they first leaf out in the spring making them almost as beautiful as in the autumn!
